I just read This article about a new invisibility cloak Duke university is working on. I wondered what it would look like. Lets see, invisible= transparent, there you go: All they needed was an alpha channel, if they would have only asked us first.

Those guys at Duke must not get out much. the Klingons and Romulans have been using cloaking technology for as long as I can remember. :mrgreen:

Since the early 60s at least.

Yeah. One should probably keep notes as to where one put it.

Yeah....but....what do you do when you can't find the note that tells you where the note is that has the list of other notes an where to find them? I guess I need one of those cloaks so I can hide from my wife and not get into trouble when I can't find that list of honey-dos she gave me. :hoh

just give her a pen with disappearing ink and you're safe.
